What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

The beater Thoroughbred 10X with silver “critter” concho hat band that I wear when the granddaughter visits in cold weather.

Hat for this morning's dog walk was my unknown-maker 1930s/1940s beater. I found it in an antique store somewhere in the Pacific Northwest around a quarter-century ago, and it's served me well ever since.

Latter part of the day was full of yard maintenance, then runs to the pharmacy, and two grocery stores. Hat for this portion of the day was my late 1950's/early 1960s Stetson 3X Open Road. One of the few truly white Stetsons I own, this one was originally purchased at Bressler-Schenck Clothing Company (1954 to 1963), in Wakefield, Nebraska.

Morning dog-walk was conducted beneath my one Disney, a 1947 beater so gloriously downtrodden and used that Phil @hambone71 nicknamed it Sod Buster, which is how I now refer to it. It came originally from Rowell’s Hat Shop (1947 to 1965) here in Boise, ID.

I switched to a western for my later expeditions to lunch, Lowe’s and some grocery shopping. Hat of choice was a Bounty Hunter Hats beauty, of 100% rabbit fur, made by Nate Funmaker in December of 1996. That was the year that Nate purchased Bounty Hunter Hats from his former employer, re-naming it Nathaniel’s Custom Hats soon afterwards.

I saw the hat before I read the post and I said “there’s the sod buster!” Love it, Mark!

For yesterday and Friday night, I had the chance to break out the Borsalino I purchased from @Daniele Tanto that he had previously shown off in the Brotherhood. Many compliments were received and questions asked for the new style being so different from what is commonly worn.

What a hat, Jeff. Deserves all the praise it gets.
